Nurse-led clinics represent a model of managing nursing care and a new way of offering nursing services directly to the population. Those new nursing services are absent from the Quebec health care system although research has documented excellent results on the health of populations elsewhere in Canada and in the world. Thus, a study was made to investigate the possibilities of implanting a nurse-led clinic in the primary health care sector in Quebec, as perceived by political actors involved in nursing or in the health care system. Those actors were interviewed about their perception of nurse-led clinics after reading a vignette illustrating the role of the nurses working in such a clinic. They were also interviewed about the possibility of implementing a nurse-led clinic in primary health care in Quebec and they had to suggest strategies that should be used for a successful implementation. The results highlight that structural barriers could hinder the implementation of nurse-led clinics in Quebec and suggest several strategies to consider for a successful implementation. The presentation will address the significance of those results considering the fast development of new nursing roles taking place everywhere.
